About this episode

Originally Aired: January 5, 1943 Fibber McGee & Molly #346, "Cutting Old Suit For Molly," In this episode, Fibber is in an unusually generous mood after enjoying one of Molly's delicious dinners and smoking a fine cigar from a mysterious box addressed to "Stinky from Cousin Waldorf." Neither Fibber nor Molly knows who Cousin Waldorf is, but Fibber is happy to adopt any relative with such good taste in cigars. When Molly asks what to do with an old blue pinstripe suit hanging in the hall closet, Fibber impulsively insists she deserves to have it cut down to fit her. Despite Molly's protests that the suit is in good condition and might still fit him if needed, Fibber calls his tailor Threadbaum to arrange the alteration. Just as the McGees prepare to head over to Threadbaum's shop with the suit, the doorbell rings. Abigail Uppington arrives asking to borrow ice skates, as she's starting skating lessons and doesn't want to invest in new skating shoes until she's certain she'll continue. After much evasion about sizes and allowing for heavy wool stockings, Abigail finally admits she needs size eleven and a half.
